VIDEO | Under relentless pressure, Rishabh Pant pulls off an MS Dhoni to save India a review

Rishabh Pant was under a lot of pressure after replacing MS Dhoni for the Windies series and a half-century in the last match of that series saved him from a lot of flak. However, the original assignment was the Australia series and no one was going to forgive him for any mistake committed here. 

And after he failed to do that in the first game, he redeemed himself in the second to save India from a review. The incident in question occurred in the 12th over of Australia innings in which Kuldeep appealed for a caught behind after drifting a floating ball into the left-hander. Carey went down on the sweep, but the ball deflected off the arm and popped into Pant's gloves. Kuldeep thought it was from the gloves and indicated, multiple times, the same to Virat Kohli, asking him to go for the review.

However, Pant told Kohli that it was off the arm and the Indian skipper eventually decided not to go for the same. The replays also suggested that it was off the arm and would have anyway given Not Out.
